As the sarcomere length of skeletal muscle is reduced beyond the length where optimum force is developed,
A) the thin filaments overlap one another with myosin bumping into the Z-line, thereby causing the force generated by crossbridges to be exerted on the sarcomere itself rather than transmitted to the ends of the muscle fiber.
B) the thick filaments overlap one another, thereby reducing their ability to interact with actin.
C) the thin filaments are pulled away from one another, thereby reducing their ability to interact with myosin.
D) the thick filaments are pulled away from one another, thereby reducing their ability to interact with actin.
E) the amount of calcium released by the sarcoplasmic reticulum is reduced as length increases.
